Researchers recently made a groundbreaking discovery on the nanoscale: a new type of quasiparticle found in all magnetic ...

Lightning strikes in the atmosphere can trigger a rain of high-powered “killer electrons” in low-Earth orbit that form harmful streams of radiation, new research suggests. Scientists had ...

In addition to having mass and electric charge, electrons also possess spin—a form of intrinsic angular momentum. Figure 1: The topological Hall effect (top gray arrow) and skyrmion-lattice motion ...

A new way of thinking about how swirling magnetic textures and mobile electrons interact could lead to compact, efficient and robust electronic devices Figure 1: The topological Hall effect (top gray ...

MIT team measures quantum geometry in solid materials Groundbreaking ARPES technique used to study quantum properties New insights into material properties could advance quantum tech ...

However, when it comes to atoms’ third component, electrons, the answer is not as easy. That’s because, as far as we know, electrons are fundamental particles. In other words, they have no ...

3 Localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) occur when light interacts with metallic nanoparticles, leading to collective oscillations of free electrons localized at the nanoparticle's surface.

IN the recent theories of metallic conduction the exchange of electrons between neighbouring atoms has perhaps not been sufficiently considered. The new quantum mechanics as applied to molecules ...

A former NASA commander has revealed that while piloting his private plane in Texas last summer he nearly had a collision with two mysterious “metallic, spherical orbs.” Astronaut Leroy Chiao ...

When cooled, it exhibits a dramatic transition between two states: metallic at room temperature, it becomes insulating at low temperatures, where its electrons are immobilized by their interactions.

Hulu is getting metal in 2025 with their brand new docuseries Into The Void (or at least that's the working title). According to a report by Deadline, the docuseries will be eight parts and is ...

Scientists have observed a unique particle that moves easily one way, yet resists at 90 degrees. These semi-Dirac fermions ...
